I’m not an authority. I’m just giving my own personal experience. I don’t think the idea people get from the media is accurate. Every country has it’s pros and it’s cons. China is no different. It’s not North Korea.
long as you admit china is imperialist with human rights abuses we coo
So is the USA, so is the UK, so is Israel, so is Russia, so is Hamas (well not really imperialist)…
pretty much. i think you can argue every country on earth has had human rights abuses at some point in its history.
I am not gonna be like “China is ultimate utopia”, but I don’t see it as a lesser country to the USA or the UK
To the US I can understand, but why the UK? Surely free healthcare more rights makes the UK overall better?
Infrastructure there is better in some aspects and development is faster. I don’t really want to leave the UK though anyway. Like the UK has problems and I don’t see them going away anytime soon. While China appears to actually try and aim to fix problems with infrastructure, etc. Some people I knew went to China 10+ years ago, and they had issues with the likes of smog, people’s manners and public toilets which were not the case by the time I went. (Except the public toilets there are still not very nice)
Do you think it’s possible that you’re only seeing the shit because you know the UK better than China?
What do you mean? The shit about what? China or the UK
